  1. Not sure on the best course of action...get the card replaced pronto?

    Gate Pillars

    My son just has a chuckle whilst we were going through the box with the sliding gate motor, controls, photocells etc. 2010 I bought the kit...
  3. Or, hope against hope, that it's a genuine site and they don't take the money until the goods are shipped! ?
  4. Interesting ref my £59.95 3D printer. The "sale" seems perpetually "on". Go to the site and there'll be "only 6 left with 289 watching". The next day it'll be "11 left with 144 watching ". They haven't taken the money.....yet.
  5. You may need the MK grid plate too if looking to change the duff DP grid switch from CED to MK and of course a second MK DP switch to match. It's good practice (as in it's in the electricians guides to building regs) for future reference, to have 100mm clear from the underside of a socket to say worktop (or in this case pipe) so the cable coming out of the plugtop is not unduly bent.
  6. You're thinking of Matt Damon. Lovely spuds though..... Here he is on the karzi:
  7. I have a bottomless hole in the ground with a dubious top on it. If I was to install a treatment plant the obvious place would be beyond the pit, further down the garden. It'd mean the pipe run to the new plant crossing the old pit so I'd have to be very careful when back filling.
  8. So where does all the stuff from the pot holes end up is what I want to know!

  11. Fingers in many pies maybe until they've jumped on a current in vogue / get rich quick scheme maybe? https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/10694131/officers

    @nod, Five Star Grout, seen it used on site over the years and reckon it'd be ideal for filling up my gate pillar and sticking everything together.....but I don't want to pay the money! Is there strong, sticky, "pourable" mix recipe based on ordinary Portland cement I can diy? Maybe with an additive? Cheers
  15. I recall seeing one of the Center Parcs sub tropical swimming paradise. The effect was somewhat ruined by all the rust streaks down the structural steel holding the dome up! Thereafter we went back and it was all netted / scaffolded out which again didn't look great. Our local leisure centre, ALL the bolts holding the flume sections together looked rotten last time I was there.
  16. Yep, saw that. Ah well, let's see what happens. Will of course update.
  17. Too late...I pushed the button!
  18. I was looking buy a 3D printer (for £86)... this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/372630619465?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid= then I found this: https://cogkart.com/products/creality-ender-3-pro-3d-printer? Any good?
  19. I hope it's not this one? How thick is this bloke, it starts to collapse so he carries on! ?
  20. Something like this, if you can be certain of the rail diameter search for that. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Vankii-18-25MM-Adjustable-Replacement-Bracket/dp/B07NR8KPSH/ref=asc_df_B07NR8KPSH/?
  21. Ok a flat face not a chamfer. Hold the connector, with the rubber washer as in your picture 2 against this. You should see as the nut tightens up it'll squash the rubber in / against this. Hand tight plus a bit is usually all you need. Have read once hand tight then tighten a 6th of a turn more so one flat face more round.
  22. Picture 1. Look on the bottom of the tap it's going onto. Might have the inside edge of the hole up it chamfered a little that the angled rubber seats against. No need for PTFE with these. Imho.
  23. I meant if she was going to keep it.
  24. Tried leaving in boiling water yet to soften the ring? Make good the scratched with a decent, black permanent marker.
  25. About four times the understanding I have then! All the home brew controller stuff is where I get lost.
